Ford School of Public Policy and Department of Health Management and Policy, School of Public Health, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor Abstract Purpose: To develop and validate the Pediatric Risk Estimation Score for Children Using Extracorporeal Respiratory Support (Ped-RESCUERS). Ped-RESCUERS is designed to estimate the in-hospital mortality risk for children prior to receiving respiratory extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. Methods: This study used data from an international registry of patients aged 29 days to less than 18 years who received ECMO support from 2009 to 2014. We divided the registry into development and validation datasets by calendar date. Candidate variables were selected for model inclusion if the variable independently changed the mortality risk by at least 2 % in a Bayesian logistic regression model with in-hospital mortality as the outcome. We characterized the model’s ability to discriminate mortality with the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic.

The development dataset contained 1611 children receiving ECMO support from 2009 to 2012. The model included the following variables: pre- ECMO pH, pre-ECMO arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide, hours of intubation prior to ECMO support, hours of admission at ECMO center prior to ECMO support, ventilator type, mean airway pressure, pre-ECMO use of milrinone, and a diagnosis of pertussis, asthma, bronchiolitis, or malignancy. The validation dataset included 438 children receiving ECMO support from 2013 to 2014. The Ped-RESCUERS model from the development dataset had an AUC of 0.690, and the validation dataset had an AUC of 0.634. Conclusions: Ped-RESCUERS provides a novel measure of pre-ECMO mortality risk. Future studies should seek external validation and improved discrimination of this mortality prediction tool. Keywords extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; risk assessment; risk adjustment; severity of illness index; mortality; pediatric Introduction The case-mix adjusted mortality rate is considered essential for accurate evaluation of hospital-level outcomes [1–7]. Numerous clinical registries have incorporated risk-adjusted mortality measurements to enhance internal and external benchmarking and as drivers for quality improvement among participating institutions [8–12]. Researchers have applied risk- adjustment tools to facilitate observational research [2,1,13], and physicians can utilize risk- adjustment tools to anticipate the mortality risk for patients [14,15]. In pediatric extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for respiratory support such a risk- adjustment tool would be of great utility in clinical and analytic applications. owever, no such risk-adjustment tool exists [16]. In this study we use data from the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO) registry, an international registry of 298 centers, to develop and internally validate the Pediatric Risk Estimate Score for Children Using Extracorporeal Respiratory Support (Ped- RESCUERS) tool. Ped-RESCUERS is designed to estimate the pre-ECMO risk of in- hospital death for children receiving respiratory ECMO support. Materials and Methods This study was designed in accordance with the Transparent Reporting of a Multivariable Prediction Model for Individual Prognosis or Diagnosis (TRIPOD) statement [17]. As a retrospective analysis of deidentified data, formal consent was not required, and it was determined to be exempt from human subjects review by the Institutional Review Board of the University of Michigan Medical School. Intensive Care Med. Author manuscript; available in PMC 2019 February 18. Barbaro et al. Page 3 Patient Selection Author ManuscriptAuthor Manuscript Author Manuscript Author Manuscript Author We queried the ELSO registry for all pediatric patients aged 29 days to <18 years who received ECMO support for respiratory failure from 2009–2014. A priori, we chose 2009 as the start date for data accrual because advances in ECMO technology from that year onward have been reported to enhance delivery of ECMO support [18,19]. If a patient was placed on ECMO more than once, we only considered the first ECMO run. The development dataset incorporated data among children who received pediatric respiratory ECMO between January 1, 2009, and December 31, 2012. A validation dataset was created from children who received respiratory ECMO support between January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2014. We limited our validation dataset to those with complete data for selected variables (Figure 1). Multiple Imputations We derived Ped-RESCUERS from a Bayesian logistic regression model predicting mortality. Our development dataset included variables with missing data (Online Resource 1-Table e1). We addressed missing data through multiple imputation with iterative chained equations [20–22] because logistic regression models that limit analysis to patients with complete data can lead to biased results [17,23]. Multiple imputation uses the partial information available in the observation and data contained in other observations in the dataset to predict an observation’s missing data (additional details in Online Resource 1-Supplemental Methods) [20]. Importantly, the outcome variable of death prior to hospital discharge contained no missing observations. Candidate Variables We adapted primary diagnostic fields from a previous publication of pediatric respiratory ECMO mortality risk factors [24] (Table 1) and defined diagnostic groups using International Classification of Disease-9-Clinical Modification (ICD-9-CM) diagnostic codes. Primary diagnoses were not considered as one variable with 15 categories, but rather as 15 present or absent dummy variables. This allowed the contribution of each diagnosis to the model to be considered individually. We recoded all other categorical variables into dummy variables. This yielded 53 candidate variables, listed in Table 1 and Table 2. In addition to primary diagnoses, candidate variables included clinical data collected ≤ 6 hours prior to ECMO, such as physiologic (the worst pre-ECMO blood gas and lowest systolic blood pressure) and therapeutic (ventilator settings and number of days of mechanical ventilation prior to ECMO) data. Other variables included the presence of pre-ECMO cardiac arrest, pre-ECMO renal failure and any clinical comorbidities as defined by Feudtner et al. [25] (additional details in Online Resource 1- Supplemental Methods and Table e2). A priori we identified two types of interactions to consider: the interaction between ventilator settings and ventilator type and an interaction

    Management of Acute Exacerbation of Asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in the Emergency Department Salvador J. Suau, MD*, Peter M.C. DeBlieux, MD KEYWORDS Asthma Asthmatic crisis COPD AECOPD KEY POINTS Management of severe asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exac- erbations require similar medical interventions in the acute care setting. Capnography, electrocardiography, chest x-ray, and ultrasonography are important diag- nostic tools in patients with undifferentiated shortness of breath. Bronchodilators and corticosteroids are first-line therapies for both asthma and COPD exacerbations. Noninvasive ventilation, magnesium, and ketamine should be considered in patients with severe symptoms and in those not responding to first-line therapy. A detailed plan reviewed with the patient before discharge can decrease the number of future exacerbations. INTRODUCTION Acute asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) exacerbations are the most common respiratory diseases requiring emergent medical evaluation and treatment. Asthma accounts for more than 2 million visits to emergency departments (EDs), and approximately 4000 annual deaths in the United States.1 In a similar fashion, COPD is a major cause of morbidity and mortality. It affects more than 14.2 million Americans (Æ9.8 million who may be undiagnosed).2 COPD accounts for more than 1.5 million yearly ED visits and is the fourth leading cause of death Disclosures: None.

On the other hand, it may also have deleterious effects through inhibition of alveolar wound repair, reabsorption of alveolar fluid, and alveolar cell proliferation. Besides, hypercapnia has meaningful effects on lung physiology such as airway resistance, lung oxygenation, diaphragm function, and pulmonary vascular tree. In acute respiratory distress syndrome, lung-protective ventilation strategies using low tidal volume and low airway pressure are strongly advocated as these have strong potential to improve outcome. These strategies may come at a price of hypercapnia and hypercapnic acidosis. One approach is to accept it (permissive hypercapnia); another approach is to treat it through extracorporeal means.
